A two-lane hill with a Magic Carpet, snowmaking and night tubing, but sessions run only on weekends and holidays.
Loading current conditions…
Ski Big Bear is a Pike County resort with two tubing lanes and a Magic Carpet lift. It is small by design, so it works best for a family or a small group rather than a big party that wants to race across many lanes.
What sets it apart from other small hills is the feature list: our record shows night tubing, and full snowmaking coverage, which makes the season more dependable than a hill relying on natural snow. The catch is scheduling. Sessions are offered on weekends and holidays, so a Tuesday visit isn’t an option.
Price, session length, age and height rules aren’t in our record. Check ski-bigbear.com for current rates and times before you drive, since they shift by season. The address is 192 Karl Hope Blvd., Lackawaxen.
For a longer weekday-capable outing you will need to look elsewhere. Holiday Mountain Ski & Fun Park is about 22 miles away, and Shawnee Mountain Ski Area about 37 miles. The night tubing guide explains what to wear after dark.
Plan for a weekend or holiday, since that is when sessions are offered; the record lists night tubing and full snowmaking coverage.

Current-season dates had not been published when we last checked. Check with the park before driving out — tubing seasons shift with the weather.
Pricing was not published when we last checked.
We track 18 tubing hills in Pennsylvania. The park has not published a price, so it cannot be compared on cost — call before you budget.
It runs 2 lanes against a state average of about 15, so it is smaller than most of its neighbours, which can mean longer waits when it is busy.
One caveat worth repeating: this park had not published its current-season dates when we last checked, while 1 of the 18 parks we track in Pennsylvania had. Treat any date you see elsewhere as a prior season's until the park confirms it.
